I have an idea: look at the mph difference in the 1/8 mile times and 1/4 mile times for those bikes.
I have another idea: lets set up a real race and do this!

I would love to see this... I am in San Antonio however... Let me know how it goes.
Action Jackson. The gixxer 1k has a lot of TQ thru the powerband too. The R1 is more peaky. I just really have a hard time thinking he could have kept up this bike. It takes 800 rwhp supras to keep up with stock busas. I know its not a busa but still. I think hes gonna need a lot more than 450 rwhp with his heavy *** car to keep up with a bike that traps around 137+. I dont think that bike is gonna fall on its face after 137 either id bet it pulls all the way to its top speed which is around 185. i doubt his camaro could hit 180.

That's because they are bringing bikes with stock suspension and tires. This same bike will then go to the other track and make those 500 hp "drag" cars look stupid. Imagine if you took your 500hp car to the track with a stock rearend, stock gears, and stock Eagle F1s
I too would like to see this. Only real way to settle it.

Ok, if an F-body can do 162 with 320 rwhp, then i don't see why with 500/600tq it couldn't pull 180 or 190. also GSXR1000s i don't think will do 185- busas will pull 190 from the factory in the american version (spoke DIRECTLY with Suzuki shop owner) he said GSXRs won't pull any over 170-175. so i think it is FEASIBLE, not true- not untrue. but feasible.

If anyone can host...I have videos of liter bikes beating all sorts of cars...including an R1 raping a 600rwhp TA, a CBR 600 raping a 540rwhp KB Cobra, 450rwhp LS1, etc. That same CBR ran side-by-side with that 600rwhp TA from a freeway roll. I've also got some videos of liter bikes (camera mount on bike). Any of these videos would educate slow14u.

For your info, I have run 6.8 in the eighth hitting the rev limiter only trapping 100.4. My car is well capable of 10's in the quarter. Just haven't been to a track since the new rear end. Next time you call b/s, know who your talking to.

4th gear topped out a little above 150mph? ROFL. Do you have 2.73's in your six speed?
